"You look like a mom." my husband smiled at me.
I did a once over of myself. My mom uniform of jeans and a t-shirt (not mom jeans though, I haven't fallen that far yet). My jeans had a touch of baby spit up on the knee. My t-shirt had slight mucus stains from where my 3 year old wiped his nose while giving me a hug. My hair was thrown up into its usual easy ponytail. No jewelry save my rings that I never take off. I couldn't remember if I'd taken the time to put makeup on or not, but my sunglasses hid my eyes anyway. My feet were in my comfy Preevos. The look of a mom? Yep, I guess I have it.

T-shirt, jeans and baby spit up...yep, that sounds about right!! :)
ReplyDeleteI like to rock a good mix of looking like a casual mum and also having a little style too! I'm with you, just say no to the 'mom jean'.
ReplyDeleteWhat on earth is Mom Jeans??
ReplyDeleteBeck - Stylehog had the best description I've heard:
ReplyDeleteBy now, everyone is aware of "mom" jeans symptom. For those of you less familiar, we will break it down for you. "Mom" jeans are unflattering, tapered, high-waisted, pleated creations whose sole purpose is to add comfort to a woman's wardrobe, while simultaneously destroying her appearance. Absolutely nobody looks good in "mom" jeans, and with so many figure-flattering, equally-as-comfortable and budget-friendly options available, "mom" jeans are a thing of the past.
google it in google images too
ReplyDeleteOh my. Thanks Kristen. I looked them up. Those are ugly. I'm glad I just have the baby food, ponytail, jeans that fit me, and t-shirt style. :)
ReplyDeleteI got that look too, girl! I say we rock it! :)
ReplyDeleteI always try to play off the stains like I didn't notice them when I put my shirt on that morning! I'm following! Cute blog!!

That is so awesome and so true. We have a comic in the works on a similar topic actually. I love the newer Moms compared to the Moms of a toddler where they are still kind of trying to keep up their appearance and clean up more, especially out at restaurants, where I am just glad when I get to eat sitting down and my son is not climbing on the tables.
